God Is Love

One thing we know about God is that God is love.  He is patient and wants us to come to repentance, and not perish, because He loves us.  We go through trials, not because He is punishing us, but it is all out of love.  I need to remember that when times are tough, and I question what I did wrong to deserve the punishment.  Our relationship with our Heavenly Father is same as our relationship with our own children.  We will love them no matter what.  We don't punish just because we are mean, but because we want to redirect and lead them on the right path.  We will never stop loving them, just as God will never stop loving us.

Be still in the light of His presence while He communicates love to us.  There is no force in the universe as powerful as His love.  There is no limit to His love; it fills all of space, time and eternity.  One day we will see Him face to face.  Then we will be able to experience fully His love for us.  The knowledge of His loving presence is sufficient to carry us through each day.
1 Corinthians 13:12; Ephesians 3:16-19
